Chapter 95: Chapter 95

His eyes filled with hatred as he looked at Lucy Eaton, but she smiled serenely at him, "No need to look at me like that, Mason Baker. If you dare to do anything to me, I will make sure you die an ugly death."

"Such big words," the old lady snorted.

"I have always been . If you dislike it, Grandma, you can choose not to acknowledge me as your granddaughter. I have no objections to that."

They waited in silence for about an hour before Jackson Baker’s secretary arrived with the test results.

"There is indeed no blood relation between Mason and the Prime Minister and Madam, but Lucy has been confirmed to be your biological daughter."

Though they already anticipated this, hearing the confirmation made Liora Hughes break down and cry, clutching Lucy Eaton tightly.

Jackson Baker wrapped his arms around both mother and daughter, pressing his head against theirs, tears streaming down, clearly overwhelmed with emotion.

Watching the scene of the three embracing as a family, Mason Baker felt a deep pang of pain in his heart.

He knew there was no room left for reconciliation with his guardians.

Now, he could only hope his grandparents would offer some assistance.

"It’s all our fault. If we had protected you better, how would such an absurd thing have happened? What’s infuriating is that your father and I never suspected anything all these years and raised someone else’s son into adulthood! If you hadn’t come forward today, your father and I might have never known, even until death. How terrifying!" Liora Hughes was furious, almost hysterical, "My poor daughter."

Lucy Eaton couldn’t hold back her tears anymore, crying uncontrollably and unable to say a word.

Jackson Baker gently wiped her tears with a tissue, "No more crying."

"Mom, Dad, you really choose me, don’t you?"

"Of course," Liora Hughes said tearfully, "It has to be you."

After she said this, she turned to Mason Baker directly and said, "From now on, you are no longer our son. Move your household registration within a week! And you are not to take a single thing from our house! Do you understand?"

Lucy Eaton hadn’t expected them to be so decisive; she thought they might hesitate...

However, she was very happy!

These were her biological parents!

"Liora, isn’t that too harsh?" the old lady expressed her dissatisfaction, "We should think this over. After all, he grew up under our care. Even if he’s not your biological child, we’ve spent so many years together. Feelings aren’t something that can just be cut off."

"Mom, you don’t need to say more," Jackson Baker firmly interrupted the old lady. "This needs to be done. We’ve raised him and nurtured him into adulthood, and we’ve never wronged him. This was never his home, so asking him to leave is reasonable."

The old man and the old lady exchanged a look, and the old man sighed and said, "Alright, since you’re so determined in your decision, I won’t force you. But although he won’t be your son, he will always be our grandson. Just transfer his household registration to your older brother’s household, and that’s how it will be."

"Then you handle it with your brother," said Jackson Baker to his parents.

The old lady was furious, "Your brother will definitely agree."

Jackson Baker was noncommittal and instructed his secretary, "Make sure to bring Mason’s biological parents to me by tomorrow morning."

"Yes, Prime Minister."

Because his grandparents hadn’t completely expelled him from the Baker family, Mason Baker didn’t dare to plead with his biological parents at this moment, choosing instead to endure silently.

The matter of the child swap had finally come to a close.

Once everyone had gone to rest, Liora Hughes took her daughter to sleep in the master bedroom, sending her husband to the guest room.

Jackson Baker, excited to talk more with his daughter, sat on the edge of the bed.

The three, though recently reunited, felt no awkwardness because they had been a family previously, and instead, they were quite comfortable together.

It felt better than they had imagined.

The couple had many questions to ask. Lucy Eaton answered them all without the slightest impatience, telling them everything they wanted to know truthfully.

The more they learned about Lucy Eaton’s past life in detail, the more heartbroken they were for their daughter, and the more they detested Autumn Fletcher and Oliver Eaton, cementing their decision to let Mason Baker go.

"Mom and Dad, you’re not what I imagined," Lucy Eaton said.

"In what ways are we different?"

Lucy Eaton replied, "I know most parents love their children, but there are definitely some parents who can’t achieve that. Let alone one who isn’t your biological child but was raised by you for over twenty years and another biological one who was never by your side. It’s hard to say which is more important. Now I feel that telling you the truth was the right thing to do, because you’re rational and decisive. Having biological parents like you makes me feel honored."

Liora Hughes hugged her tighter, "I raised Mason myself, and it’s impossible not to have deep feelings. But the moment I think about how he knew the truth all along yet hid it from me and your dad, it’s terrifying. He wasn’t a child we adopted from an orphanage; he was swapped with you by his biological parents. Even if there’s a maternal bond, I have to be decisive and sever it because, in essence, he was a wolf we raised that could turn on us. We have lost trust in him; how can a family stay together without trust? His parents swapped you without treating you well, letting you grow like a weed. No matter what, Mom must seek justice for you."

She then looked at her husband, "This matter is atrocious. If Mason’s biological parents aren’t properly punished, I’ll never find peace."

"I’ll handle it, don’t worry," Jackson Baker said, looking at his wife holding their daughter with gentle eyes. "No wonder you look like me. I feel very blessed right now."

In her mother’s embrace, Lucy Eaton felt warmth envelop her heart, "So do I." Follow current novels on novel✦fire.net

That night, they stayed up talking until three or four in the morning before finally going to rest.

At dawn, the couple got up again.

They had to meet with Oliver Eaton and Autumn Fletcher, who had been brought in.

Upon seeing Autumn Fletcher, Liora Hughes immediately slapped her, "Despicable and shameless!"

Autumn Fletcher didn’t dare to argue, "It’s all my greed back then. I wanted my son to have a good life, and I did something so wrong. I have actually regretted it for a long time, but I didn’t know how to tell you, and so it dragged on until now..."

"Lies!" Liora Hughes sneered, "If you had an ounce of remorse in your heart, would you have told Lucy she was adopted? Would you have hired someone to impersonate her maternal relatives?"

Exposed, Autumn Fletcher panicked, her face turning as pale as paper, and she didn’t know how to respond.
